Yesterday’s morning commute was laden with delays due to a jump attempt made by a young woman at the Grove Street PATH Station, Port Authority officials say.

Confirmed by surveillance video footage, at about 6:20 a.m. a distressed young woman leaped in front of an incoming train.

Fortunately, the timing of the jump afforded the engineer time to apply the brakes so that the train did not hit her at full speed. The woman also landed in a location that provided her with good clearance from the third rail, officials reported.

The woman was extricated from under the train conscious and with no major injuries, and was accompanied by the conductor and another Port Authority employee to Jersey City Medical Center. An EMT on scene described her as “lucky to be alive.”

She is currently undergoing treatment and psychiatric evaluations.

Service at the Grove Street station was suspended, then delayed to 20-minute intervals during the hourlong incident. Earlier, station managers had to redirect commuters toward the Exchange Place station several blocks away.
